Phone on charge so it'll have to be tomorrow for photos. The body is a figured black/ dark grey like the one in @lemmywinks post featuring some early roadworn-ness - remember this adds value to instruments. Neck is a non-sticky gloss finish which feels tiny since I've been playing 5ers. The standard MM Humbucker has a surprising broad spectrum of tones - far better than I expected TBH. Gunky cheap Chinese (I believe) strings produce, again, surprisingly good tones though these should be changed at the earliest opportunity. If I'd had this earlier in my career I wouldn't be unhappy with it. If I was given it I would be a more than chuffed. Easily worth what I paid for it - even with all the messing about from the numpty seller (who had it tuned in some weird tuning).

So the saga comes to an end.... I started a dispute using eBay and suddenly she gets in contact with me apologising for not going on ebay. She sends me her address which my phone doesn't recognise but puts me close enough to find the flat. Bass looks OK - I'll take the dogs out and check it over when I'm done. JOOI anybody want it??

Still nothing from the seller so I've started a dispute with eBay. Just going to get my money back.

Ride on time - black box

Available as a 5er? I hope not as it would have to go on the GAS list

I'm surprised Sire haven't offered the PJ option as well.

I was thinking the same.

My sweet Lord - George the Beatle.

Penny Lane - The Beatles

Filthy rich - Evalyn

Worst case scenario I can always "return" the item.

Telephone Love - Shabba Ranks

Nothing!! Starting to have doubts.

Waiting in Vain - Bob Marley

Have you tried your local youth centre??

Sorry Jack...Sod's Law - it's fretless... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/234891595327?hash=item36b0a14e3f:g:YDMAAOSwiedj5Rgr&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAoHPfyGNK8g6Qfx%2FcePNYS0%2Fm511XiGn1rh1pw2P9nBifWQLWdgXAMV0v4dyvErM753PDzvB3RkXzQ3bSALCpt6KNZTekxPzmBEf%2BYgTFKfxEcmf9Ov0kO6h80YLPlH%2BZmokP7%2Fw7uQCw0fgaNY%2B%2FPrp28mItrepKd28qjwayXu2%2Bqo3yoIBw4c5hYQ4gZlSbi%2FdixBtgQDxaPsj7WLsaTvs%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR7Tk3JrTYQ

I learned the theme from "The Professionals" in about 5 mins.

I avoid red anything where possible. Green on the other hand....

The first cut is the deepest - Rod Stewart

Not a squeak from the seller yet - it's 8pm.

I had a Spectorcore but was pretty disappointed with it TBH. Can't comment on the others. I really did like my Yamaha TRB - traded for a fretted which is now "another fretted 5er in my rack" - even though it is a very nice bass. I'd seriously consider one of these and there are two on eBay (I believe).

There's one on Gumtree, one in Cash Converters in Edinburgh and another on Reverb. I hadn't heard about them till today - like buses 3 come along at the same time. https://www.joness.com/gr300/pdf/vibracell/switch_guitar_catalog_2005.pdf
